Hi all,
A national count of wintering Ospreys will take place in Portugal on Jan 24th (Saturday).
This is a non-profit, volunteer event and its main goal is to get an accurate estimate of the wintering population (which is believed to be in the 25-50 range).
We would like to cover all wetlands (estuaries, lagoons, large rivers, reservoirs) in the same day, in order to avoid double counts that might arise from birds moving from one area into another.
About 30 volunteers are already available to help in this census. If any of you wishes to take part, please let me know.
Thanks.
Gonçalo
